Movie Journal Entry #89: Sunshine Cleaning (2008)

Sunshine Cleaning
The producers of this movie tried to repeat the indie feel and charm that made Little Miss Sunshine a breakout hit in 2006. They did not succeed.
Sunshine Cleaning is a weird film. It has a good concept, some great actors and an interesting script yet just feels average in every possible way.
Two sisters start a clean-up service that specializes in cleaning up dead bodies at crime scenes while at the same time having to deal with the fact that they're incredible under-achievers. Clifton Collins Jr ,that guy who's awesome in every movie he's in but no one knows who he is, is great as a one armed store owner and Amy Adams plays despaired pretty convincingly but in the end the whole movie is just extremely passable.

Maybe See It
